FME can read and write files in the Autodesk FBX® (Filmbox) format.
FBX data exchange technology is supported by a number of third-party 3D modelling applications.

Reader Overview
The reader reads the elements (including mesh geometries) of 3D scenes from FBX files.
The reader is compatible with FBX file format versions 7.0-7.5, 6.1, and 6.0.
The value for the Reader Dataset is the path to the .fbx source data file.
Note: The reader does not currently support animation. If an FBX file contains animation, geometries will be produced in the positions they have at the end of the animation (so the scene will be handled at "time=infinity").
Writer Overview
The writer creates an Autodesk FBX file for each feature type it processes.
The writer can produce binary or ASCII FBX files, version 7.5 or 6.1.
